I was just chatting with my father tonight about how far car performance has come. A simple tune on a lot of these modern turbo 4 bangers puts you at the same power level as his blueprinted Boss 302... Nutty!
So much for not modding the GTI, eh?
The pedal thing is for all the wimps that complain about pedal stiffness. So many modded DSMs and such had TERRIBLE pedal pressure compared to any modern car, lol
